It's the same with other technology which is used by the public regularly. We carry Supercomputers (in millennial scales) with the size of a small chocolate bar in our pockets and we (most of us) use them for entertainment, out of pure boredom, which wrecks our dopamine, so we become even more bored, instead of educating ourselves for improving our lives.
Forget intuition. Intuition is now useless. The (social) media already tells us what is right and what is wrong.
I am not sure if I buy the premise about people just getting dumber. Sure there are changes in society and we don't know how to fix things anymore, since it has become more complicated to repair your own car or your washing machine, yet does it translate towards people becoming dumber.. including so much access to information, yet perhaps having some difficulties with social interaction.. changes in our ways of socially interacting, for sure.
Fair point. I'm short on time rn, but i would summarize my thoughts about your reply this way:
People become
relatively dumber, because of a world of growing complexity. Our linear brains are way behind.
And maybe it's just human to distract ourselves, as a mental strategy to avoid getting overwhelmed by facing more and more problems?

JJG - What a stupid, scumbag, 'know it all' preaching fool you are! I can't imagine anyone caring for someone like you with your mentally ill, shitty character/personality.
I stand by the points that I made in my earlier post, and further, I don't recall claiming that anyone likes me.. except my mom.
You know that nobody here likes you, Jay... on Thursdays
I have to spend a day at the court now, as a plaintiff.
Have a nice friday
